NOTICE. The immense expense we have incurred in pre paring the present copy of The Sun, which -yre willingly give to our Subscribers at the usual price, will prevent us from selling it to Non-subscribers at the same rate. Its beauty, however, is so great, that we are sure the public, who will be desirous to possess such an extraordinary specimen of the art of print ing, will be willing to pay the sum which we shall find it necessary to demand to cover our expense. 1.7 4 " : • r--4-' l 4 lkn 'a" •• •-3 •4 1 ,1 1 , J.,•k e A z z: •-•.' • "4-, r-, • - A* • rit4 vTh 2 1 WITH WHICH THE " TRUE SUN" IS NOW INCORPORATED. LONDON : THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 28, 1838. Our Journal of this day commemorates the Co ronation of her MAJESTY, by appearing in a golden dress. We claim little more merit for this splendid specimen of the united arts of engraving and printing, than having most diligently exerted ourselves to lay it before our readers. To the great ingenuity of the firm of De La RUE and Co., to the perseve rance and exertions of Messrs. CLOWES and Son, to the great skill of Mr. EDWARD WYON the modeller, and to the talents of one of the first engravers of the age—to all these gentlemen combined we are in debted for the great beauty which our Journal this day exhibits. The zeal of all the gentlemen we have mentioned, and in particular, M. De La RUE, in rendering us assistance, is above our praise, and seemed dictated by a conviction that their own ho nour was concerned in our success. Our readers may form some idea of the exertions and expense necessary to attain our object, when we state that it has required the united labour of three large esta blishments, comprising between two and three hun dred persons. Our publication is a proof that our exertions have not been in vain, and the very hand some manner in which three of our Morning Con temporaries have done us the honour to speak of the specimen we laid before them, is an earnest of that praise we hope to deserve from the public at large. We have unfortunately to regret that an accident, wholly unexpected, and which might have happened at any time to almost any printing completed by machinery, will prevent us from preparing to-night the large numbers for which we have a demand. All our Subscribers we shall serve to-night; but the Public at large must have patience with us. By Saturday, we hope to continue our publication, and from that time forward, we shall be ready to answer all the immense demand, already far exceeding our expectation, and amounting to nearly a quarter of a million, which may be made. For ourselves, we shall briefly say that we have no other object in view than to please that public which we have ever found an indulgent and encou raging employer ; and, to do honour to that day on which the Nation's QUEEN has vowed at the Altar and before her assembled people to preserve the Na tion's liberties, and, with God-like attributes, to do justice, tempered with mercy. Among the distinctions conferred in honour of that auspicious event which the British nation is this day celebrating, with a joy as deep as it is universal, there is none that the public will consider better de served, or more appropriately bestowed, than that which advances Lord DUNDAS to the Earldom of Zetland. The Noble Earl possesses extensive pro perty in the county of Orkney, of which Zetland forms the larger and more populous portion ; as well as the patronage of almost all the churches in both the districts; and he has used the power derived from these sources in such a manner as to endear himself to the inhabitants in general. But strong as these claims may be, they are in our view far infe rior to that which the Noble Earl derives from hav ing, during the course of a long life, adhered inflex ibly, through good report and had report, to those liberal political principles with which he set out in his youth, and to which her Gracious MAJESTY is well-known to be cordially and firmly attached. This Earldom, though a new creation in the British Peerage, is, notwithstanding, of very ancient date ; and it is a circumstance not perhaps generally known, that the blood of the first Earl of Orkney and Zet land, ROGNVALD, or RONALD, of Mceri, in Norway, flows in the veins of Queen VICTORIA. Such, how ever, is the fact. HAROLD, the Fairhaired, having subdued the Orkney and Zetland Islands, towards the close of the ninth century, constituted them an earldom, dependent on the crown of N orway, and gave them in charge to the above mentioned power ful chieftain. HROLF, or Rot.i.o, as he is. generally called, the founder of the Norman dynasty, was the son of Earl RONALD ; and from Rom.o, WILLIAR the Conqueror was the fifth in descent. HOUSE OF COMMONS. (THIS DAY.) The House was opened shortly after 7, and by 8 o'clock, numbers of Members were flocking in, some dressed in Court dresses, a great many in military and naval uniforms, and a vast number in the uni from of the Yeomanry Cavalry. Amongst the earliest arrivals, were Lord Sandon, Mr. Bernal, Alderman Copeland, &c. The Mem bers continued to pour in, dressed in all sorts of uni form, till 9 o'clock, when the Speaker entered in his State robes, the Sergeant carrying the mace, and wearing all his orders. At that time there were up wards of 400 Members present, and it never was our fortune to witness a finer or grander scene than when the Members all rose to receive the Speaker as he proceeded to the Chair. The intermixture of the various uniforms and Court dresses, formed as beau tiful a coup d'reil as could possibly be witnessed. All the officers of the army and navy wore the col lars of the orders to which they belonged. Amongst those who attracted the notice of the House, were Admiral Codrington, whose breast was covered with orders; Lord William Bentinck, Admiral Adam, General Evans, Sir F. Trench, Sir H. Hardinge, &c. Mr. Walter Campbell appeared in a superb High land dress, and was loudly cheered. So also was Mr. Pease, who wore an exceedingly neat Court dress, which had as much the appearance of a " Friend's" dress as possible. Mr. Fector appeared in a superb velvet Court dress, and was loudly cheered. Shortly before the Speaker came in, Mr. O'Con nell entered the House in a Court dress, which caused much laughter, in which the Hon. Member cordially joined. During the half hour which elapsed before the Ballot was commenced, the Members enjoyed them selves in jeering and laughing at each other. At half-past nine precisely, the Speaker called " Order,': and said that the Ballot was now about to take place, and as the counties were called, the Gen tlemen who represented them, and places within them, would at once proceed to the Abbey. The first county called was Meath, then Perth, Flint, &c. It was singular that the first drawn were those which had but few Representatives, conse quently the House was filled for a considerable time after the balloting began. Lord William Bentinck was the last to leave the House. The Ballot was got through in half an hour, and the Speaker accompanied by the Sergeant, Chaplain, Secretary, &c. went over to the Abbey at Teu o clock. OFFICE OF ORDNANCE. In Pall-mall, the Office of Ordnance was remark able for the splendour and elegance of the decora tions. In the centre of the building was displayed the ancient Ordnance arms, mounted by a white rose and the crown, above which was raised the Royal standard, which was of large dimensions, and pour trayed in brilliant colours : on either side were two large shields with military trophies embraced by a scroll, on which was inscribed Victoria Regina, or -lamented with variegated lamps. The national em blems of the rose, shamrock, and thistle, entwined in a wreath of laurel, completed the centre ornaments. On each wing was a large star in variegated lamps, surmounted by three Union Jacks floating from the parapet. On the gable walls enclosing the fore-court a military trophy of brilliant flags, consisting of regi mental standards, was arranged with great taste, which were placed in such a way as to harmonize with the other devices, and to give to the whole the appearance of great magnitude. The whole of the fore coert was appropriated to the construction of a spacious gallery for the accommodation of the Mas ter-General of the Ordnance, the Board Officers, and the Civil Employes in London. Seats - were also re served for ladies connected with the military a n d civil officers of the Department. The gallery was constructed upon the most approved principles, and secured by the substantial character of the work from the possibility of accident. On either side of this gallery was a plateau, upon which were drawn up files of soldiers, composed of Gunners of the Artil lery, and Sappers attached to the corps of Royal En gineers, all "en grand tenue." The contrast in the uniform of these men, that of the Sappers being scar let, and of the Gunners blue, added much to the ef fect of the coup (rod, giving life and animation to this brilliant exhibition of military parade. The entire arrangements and the style of the deco rations did great credit to the liberality of the depart ment, and to the taste of Sir Frederick Smith, Com manding Royal Engineers, under whose directions they were ta goit ad by Mr. Charles Story, Clerk of the W Grks. THE CORONATION euttn Victoria. STATE PROCESSION, FROM THE QUEEN'S PALACE TO THE WEST GATE OF WESTMINSTER ABBEY. At seventeen minutes past Three o'clock this morning, a Royal salute of twenty-one guns announced that the Sun was then rising upon the joyous day, when the Crown of these great realms was to be placed upon the head of the most po pular and beloved Sovereign that has wielded the British sceptre since the days of Alfred. The whole metropolis was literally awakened, and presented a scene of bustle and ex citement rarely if ever equalled. At four o'clock, the streets were so thronged with carriages and pedestrians that they were in many places impassable, and the whole population seemed to have been poured out in the direction of the Parks and of Westminster Abbey.

THE QUEEN, S PALACE. Even so early as six o'clock the Green Park, the Mall, and the enclosure in St. James's Park, were filled with per sons of all ranks, and at that early hour the struggle for places commenced ; but those who were successful in taking up the best positions were premature in their triumph. For soon afterwards the police took up their ground, and the mi litary also made their appearance in the open space, or parade, in front of the Queen's Palace, and by degrees the crowds were compelled to retire within the inclosures, and down the Mall. The squadrons of Life Guards and a troop of Lancers, which were to take part in the procession, together with a company of Light Infantry, were drawn up in different parts of the area, whilst the centre was filled with General Officers and their Staffs. The imposing cha racter of the scene was heightened by the picturesque ap pearance of the Yeomen of the Guard in their State dresses. The roof of the North projection of the Palace was literally covered with people, and on the top of the triumphal arch there were stationed two sailors, of remarkably fine figure, who were in charge of the flag-staff upon which the Royal Standard was to be hoisted on her Majesty's departure from the Palace. About eight o'clock the fine band of the Life Guards struck up " God Save the Queen," and played at intervals until the commencement of the procession. The carriages which were to compose the cavalcade now took their places according to the order prescribed—those of the Foreign Ambassadors in the south walk, and the Royal carriages in the north walk of the Mall. At ten o'clock the procession began to move, and as the several illustrious foreigners were recognized, they were much cheered, especially Marshal Soult, who acknowledged the compliment by repeated bows. His Excellency, Ahmed Pacha, also seemed gratified at the reception he met with, as his equipage passed through the crowded lines. The occu pants of the Royal carriages were also warmly greeted. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge was evidently in great good humour, and frequently bowed to the populace; and the Duke of Sussex and the Duchess of Kent were sa luted with the most enthusiastic cheering. We are happy to say that his Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex looked much better than we have for some time seen him. Up to this time the weather had worn the uncertain aspect which characterized the last few days. For an hour it seemed doubtful whether sunshine or rain would prevail, but almost at the instant when the noble-looking tars upon the roof of the triumphal arch hoisted the Royal Standard, as the Queen was entering her carriage, the clouds passed away, and the sun shone forth with all the brilliancy of midsummer. The tars waved their hats and cheered as the Standard rose. The immense assemblage responded to the cheer with one tre mendous shout of joy, which was continued until the Royal cortege had passed over Constitution-hill. Her Majesty was in most excellent spirits, and smiled graciously upon the many of her subjects who in this place strove to catch her attention to their affectionate greetings. She was accom panied by the Master of the Horse, Lord Albemarle, and the Duchess of Sutherland, the Mistress of the Robes. The following is the order of the procession : Under the Direction of one of the Queen's Equerries, with Two Assistants. Trumpeters. A squadron of Life Guards. Carriages of the Foreign resident Ambassadors and Ministers, in the order in which they take precedence in this country : The Charge d'Affaires of Mexico. The Charge d'Affaires of Portugal.
